Thanks guys. Good friend of my wife says guys are "always better with a project". M31 is often on my list when poking above the horizon. Just be aware the hours are often even more unsavoury than this year - AF was about as late as it ever gets this year and the moon was out of the way fairly early on. You frequently find in the last 2 weeks of July the moon may still be up for much of the first 6 days by the time M31 is at a decent image height (2 to 3am). Chance of fog, sleep deprivation and alcohol affecting imaging performance increases greatly during those hours!....
